Application filed December 13, 1916. Serial No. 136,587.

certain new and useful Improvements in Heating-Stoves, of which thefollowing is a specification.

This invention relates to heating stoves for household use, and has forits o'bjectto provide a stove of such class, in a manner as hereinafterset forth, with means to provide a series of bafiies in the heatingchamber for the purpose of retarding the passage of'the heatlng unitstoward the stack thereby increasing the efiiciency of the stove.

Further objects of the invention are to provide a heating stove which issimple in its construction and arrangement, strong, durable, efiicientin its use, readily set up and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture.

With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists ofthe novel con struction, combination and arran ement of parts, ashereinafter more speci cally described and illustrated in theaccompanying drawings, of the 1nvention,but it is to be understood thatchanges, variations and modifications can be resorted to which comewithinthe scope of the claims hereunto appended.

In the drawings wherein like reference characters denote correspondingparts throughoutv the several views Figure 1 is a vertical sectionalview of a stove in accordance with this invention.

Fig. 2 is a section on line 11-11, Fig. 1.

Fig. 3 is a section on line III-III,- Fig. 1.

Fig. .4 is an elevation of the front baffle plate.

. Fig. plate.

Referring to the drawings in detail the stove body 18 formed of a bottomsection A, an intermediate section B and a top section C. The bottomsection A is rectangular in contour and is supported by a plurality oflegs 1. The section A is in the form of a receptacle having a closedbottom 2 and its top 3 formed with an opening 4. The front wall 5 of thesection A has an opening 6, for

'5 is an elevation of the rear bafie the passage of an ash tray or pan7, the lat-,

ter having a handle 8. The upper face of the top 3 has integraltherewith a vertically disposed annular flange 9, spaced from the edgesof the opening 4, and that part of the wherein is shown an embodimenttop between the flange 9 and edge of the opening 4 rovides a supportingledge 10, for the section B. Forwardly of the flange 9, at each cornerof the top 3, openings 11 i are arranged, which are closed by pivotedlids 12, having lugs 13 providing finger or thumb pieces. The openings11 in connection with the lids or closures 12 are employed forregulating the draft through the stove.

The section B is annular in contour and has its lower portion 14contracted so as to extend within the flange 9, and seat on the ledge10. The upper portion of the section B, is contracted as at 15 andterminates in a vertical flange 16, which is surrounded by the lower endof the section C. The contracted upper portion of the section B providesa seat 17 for the lower end of the section C. The section B intermediateits upper and lower ends has arranged therein a dumping grate 18 whichdivides said section B into a combustion chamber 19 and an ash pit 20.Lugs 21 and 22 are arranged within the section B arresting the upwardmovement of the front and the downward movement of the rear of thegrate. A handle 23 extendsfrom the grate outwardly through the section Bto facilitate the dumping thereof. Access is had to the combustionchamber 19 through an opening 24, in .the section B, which is closed bya door 25.

The section C which provides a heating chamber 26 is cylindrical incontour, open at its bottom and closed at its upper end by a removableflanged cover 27. Arranged within the section C between its transversecenter and its lower end is a semi-circular plate 28 which is positionedagainst the inner face of the section C in a manner to provide a passage29 at the forward portion of the chamber 26 to establish communicationbetween the upper and lower portions thereof. Angle irons 30 andsecuring devices 31 are provided for maintaining the plate 28 inposition. The plate 28 has an opening 32, adjacent to its rear, throughwhich depends a removable short smoke conducting pipe 33 for providinga. direct draft when a fire is started. I

Supported by the plate 28 are removable front and rear bafiie plates 34and 35 which are spaced from each other. The bafiie plate 34 is of lessheight than the bafiie 35, and extends from the plate 28 to a fipointremoved from the cover 27. The ba e 34 is maintained in averticalposition by spaced retaining devices 36 secured to the inner face of thesection C. The top edge of the bafiie 34 is cut away in a semi-circularmanner, as at 37, to facilitate the passage of the heatunits over saidedge.

The bafiie 35 extends from the plate 28 to the cover 27 and has itslower edge cut away in a semi-circular manner, as at 38, to provide forthe passage of the heating units toward the stack or outlet pipe 39arranged at the rear of the heating chamber 26 near its top. The baffle35 is maintained verti cally by spaced retaining devices 40. The bailie35 is arranged in a plane centrally with respect to the conducting pipe33.

The section Chas an openlng 41, closed by a door 42, so that access canbe had to the said section.

What I claim is 1. A heating stove comprising a normally closed ash panreceptacle, means to provide a combustion chamber and an ash-pit, meansto provide a heating chamber, a horizontally disposed semi-circularplate within the heating chamber and having a direct .draft pipeextending therethrough, and

spaced vertical baflles supported by said plate, an outlet provided forthe heating chamber, said direct draft pipe positione below and openingtoward said outlet, and said receptacle having means for controlling thedraft.

2. A heating stove comprising a normally closed ash pan receptacle,means to provide a combustion chamber and an ash-pit, means toprovide'a' heating chamber, a horizontally disposed semi-circular platewithin the heating chamber. and having a direct draft pipe extendingtherethrough, and spaced vertical baflles supported by said plate, anoutlet provided for the heating chamber, said direct draft pipepositioned below and opening toward said outlet, said receptacle havingmeans for controlling the draft, one of said bafiies disposed in a planecentrally with respect to sa1d pipe.

3. A heating stove comprising a normally closed ash pan receptacle,means to provide a combustion chamber and an ash-pit, means to provide aheating chamber, a horizontally disposed semi-circular plate within theheating chamber and having a direct draft pipe extending therethrough,and spaced vertical baflles supported by said plate, an outlet providedfor the heating chamber, said direct draft pipe positioned below andopening toward said outlet, said receptacle having means for controllingthe draft, one of said baffles having its upper edge and the otherhaving its lower edge cut away in a semi-circle, that baffle having itslower edge cut away of greater height than the other bafie.

4:. A heating stove comprising means to provide a combustion chamber,means to provide a heating chamber and having an outlet, a horizontallydisposed semi-circular plate arranged within said heating chamberintermediate its upper and lower ends and having a direct draft pipeextending therethrough adjacent to the rear thereof, and spaced verticalbaifles supported by said plate, one of said baflies having its upperedge and the other its lower edge cut away in a semi-circle, that bafllehaving its lower edge cut away of greater height than the other baflleand arranged at the rear of the latter.

5. A heating stove comprising a heating chamber having a smoke outlet,bafiies supported within said heating chamber, and a direct draft pipesupported by "the means for supporting the baflles and arranged withinthe heating chamber at the rear thereof and below the baffles.

In testimony whereof I 'afiix my signature in the presence of twowitnesses.
